Other highlights include how the introduction of fine dining at Delmonico's in 1827 coincided with the city's transformation into an international center of commerce; how multiple outposts of Horn \u0026amp; Hardart, Childs, Chock Full o' Nuts, and Schrafft's fed the masses; where '21' hid its alcohol during Prohibition; why Jewish immigrants quickly established their own food stores on the Lower East Side; how chicken and waffles came to be a famous pair; and how Porterhouse steak got its name. Also included are entertaining profiles of the city's most influential food personalities from Arnold Reuben, who was the first restaurant owner to name sandwiches after famous people, to the legendary James Beard, and one of today's premier restaurateurs, Danny Meyer.\nReaders will also find a wealth of recipes for dishes that originated in New York City, such as Black and Whites, Delmonico Potatoes, and Egg Creams, as well as those dishes with New York style that have gained nationwide appeal, such as Manhattan Clam Chowder, Cheesecake, and Knishes.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 158479397X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.158479397X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Callis, Chris|Schwartz, Arthur\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
